The Role
I learnt a lot in the time at my placement my manager was excellent, the team was brilliant and would love to come back after my final year
I felt that's I was part of a team, they helped me guided me to do the best and get work done.
I could not ask for a better manager, he was helpful, supportive and showed me exactly what to do.
I always had something to do for the whole year
I was not aloud do do certain items but it was amazing of the work I managed to get done.
I managed to develop a lot of skills, from developing code, to data managing which was key because a lot of units I'm working on are close to the working world.

Very organized I was able to get straight into work and was able to produce a lot
I got full training on work I needed to complete for the placement

Yes I could sign up to any company activities I wanted to join.
